Many marine fishes change color during courtship. The Flame Angel, C. loricula, is no different. The male Flame angel also change color during courtship. I keep Flame angel harem for many years but only recently I was able to notice this change. One of the reason is that they are often spawn at dust. The dim light make it hard to see the color change.
Specifically, the Yellow coloration become more prominence. This give the Male Flame angel a ON FIRE look.
I often take pictures of my fishes at various time. I was able to document this change with pictures below. This is the same male Angel. Pictures taken only a few days apart. Whey he is just swimming around and when he is courting his females
Male Flame angel normal coloration:
Same angel, super excited coloration during courtship. He is ON FIRE
Hope everybody enjoy this observation
